Brazilian-born Murilo Lopez Dacosta, 27, of Caddy Close, Egham, was jailed on June 21 at Guildford Crown Court for 15 years followed by five years on licence.

He was told he would have to serve a minimum of 10 years before he would be considered for release.

Dacosta previously pleaded guilty to counts of attempted rape, threatening to kill and possessing an offensive weapon in a public place for the ‘appalling’ attack in Rusham Road, Egham, during the early hours of January 15.

But after "careful reflection", Judge Critchlow ruled he would not change the extended sentence he had originally imposed.

“Had Mr Dacosta been a native of this country, I don’t believe this court would be reviewing this matter,” he said.

“One must assume, hopefully, when he is deemed fit to be released, or when the time comes to be released, he will be deported back to Brazil or Trinidad & Tobago where his wife is living with his children.”
